  • "Lovely peaceful place central to a lot of attractions."

    felt like home .

    Thank you Linda for your kind comments about The Barn ‘feeling like home’ and being a peaceful location yet close to attractions. I’m sorry you did not feel the listing was accurate. I raised this with Sykes, and it appears Sykes are using third party companies to advertise properties but Sykes are not checking these companies descriptions of the properties, which are somewhat ambiguous. This is frustrating for property owners and very misleading for customers. I am sorry you were inconvenienced by this. Hopefully Sykes will rectify. Property Owner

  • "The Barn is a very comfortable property in a peaceful no through road just 15 minutes from Tenby."

    The Barn is well equipped with everything we needed for the week we were there. Little touches left in the cottage by the owner such as fresh flowers, tea, coffee, sugar, milk and cookies were a lovely surprise. We felt at home as soon as we walked through the door. The outlook one way is over the well maintained garden to the paddock with a few sheep, the outlook the other way is over an equally well maintained garden that catches the afternoon/evening sun. A great spot for a glass of wine and a good book after several hours of walking earlier in the day. I would highly recommend this property.

  • "Having recently stayed for a week at The Barn, we are happy to provide a review."

    The Barn access upon arrival, was by lockbox with a code. the Barn is down a track about 1/2 mile long, with some 4 properties in the vicinity, with the owner Alyson, who is lovely, in a home attached to the Barn. The location is very quiet and was what we had hoped for. It has a paddock with 6 sheep adjacent to the front garden and the rear garden is overlooked by the neighbouring properties. Both the front and back gardens are shared with the owners property, but we only saw Alyson coming via the front pathway and she was rarely seen in our week there. The Barn is spacious, with a large kitchen that Alyson mentioned that she intends to upgrade, but is all fine and good for a pleasant stay as it is. Off the kitchen you can find a doorway to a small hall that services the upstairs 2 single bed room,which is fine for children, a separate toilet and also what would be termed the master bedroom, complete with a modern en-suite. The master bedroom has a double bed and also a single bed in the room. The only thing I'd add to this master bedroom would be blackout curtains (they are not blackout at present in this room), although are present in some of the other bedrooms. Off the kitchen is a large spacious living room with french doors to both the front and also the back garden. There is a smart TV, good leather sofas and chairs and a log burner with an ample supply of logs, kindling, matches and fire lighters. Off the living room is a hall that services a double bedroom, a twin bedroom and a full bathroom. The floors are in the main wooden and they do creak, but this adds to the charm of the place. On our arrival, in the kitchen, Alyson had baked some chocolate brownies and also provided some milk in the fridge. A nice touch. The place was an ideal base for us, and as the weather turned a little cold, Alyson even provided some more logs and kindling, which were much appreciated. We took our dog to the Barn and she was more than happy with the garden size, the sheep neighbours in the adjacent paddock and also being somewhat bemused by the mowbot, Alyson's robotic mower, that came out daily to over all the spacious gardens. Alyson also tends the many plants in pots and tubs around the gardens, which looked delightful and a credit to her. There is an outdoor bench and seats at the front garden, a clothes line and in the back garden, a stack of 4 chairs, plus a large table and a further 4 chairs. Perhaps the only thing missing from the rear garden would be a couple of sun loungers perhaps, but that is being perhaps picky. The wifi whilst not fast, was adequate. There was plenty of off road parking and the availability of little touches such as books on the coastal area, games in the bench seat in the kitchen, dishwasher tabs being provided by Alyson, as well as coffee, tea and sugar being available for us on arrival was great. Overall, this is a lovely place to stay and Alyson is the perfect owner/host, even offering a dog sitting service if needed, to avoid your pooch being left alone in the house, which is a no-no by the way for the booking. You will have to look far to get a better place to stay, but you will need a car to get to and from it, as it is off the beaten track, so to speak, but that wasn't a problem for us at all, we loved our stay.
